Washable Workwear Wednesday: The Suzy Maxi Skirt
This post may contain affiliate links and CorporetteMoms may earn commissions for purchases made through links in this post. As an Amazon Associate, I earn from qualifying purchases.
Here’s a versatile maxi skirt that will take you from office to weekend.
This long A-line skirt has a hidden elastic waist for comfort. You can amp up its luster by pairing it with a silk blouse or mix textures by adding a cozy knit. I especially like the rich “sangria nights,” a dark red, but it’s also available in go-with-anything black.
The Suzy Maxi Skirt by Favorite Daughter is $198 for black and $218 for sangria nights. It’s available in sizes XS-XL.

Anyone else already dreading the holidays? My parents are one of those couples where he’s gone all-in on Fox News/ Trump/ etc and she’s moved farther and farther left. My dad and I already have a somewhat strained relationship and I am increasingly ambivalent about having him involved in my kids’ lives.
DH is traveling for work from tomorrow through Friday. Then he is leaving again on Sunday returning on Friday 11/15. Then he was supposed to just be gone for one night the 20-21 someplace an hour away and on Sunday 11/24 we fly to NJ for Thanksgiving. Now he has to be in NY on 11/21. We also have plans on 11/25 that basically involve me being with my MIL and the kids all day while he has the day to himself. Is it totally unreasonable of me to make him come back so we can all fly together on 11/24? I’m ok flying solo with the kids, but it’s more all of the solo parenting leading up to the flying solo/the reason we planned to fly on Sunday and not Saturday is so I’d have a day to pack and get everything ready. on the one hand, i feel slightly ridiculous, but on the other hand if he had to be just about anywhere else on 11/21 he’d come back first.
last night one of my 6 year old daughters told me that whenever she sees other people crying it makes her feel like crying too. I absolutely love love her empathy for others, but she is also a people pleaser. how do i help her harness her empathy without getting trampled over.
I know there were lots of people talking about leaving the country in 2008 and 2020, but back then I didn’t have kids or any plausible way to do it.
Now I have the classic immigrant mother conundrum. I could move to a safer (though not perfect) country. My husband and kids would have legal rights that I would not have. I could probably find work in my field but our HHI would drop considerably. We would be socially and financially dependent on my very toxic inlaws.
It would be a poor choice for me, but would it be a better choice for my kids? I would especially love to hear from any second generation immigrants here.
My kid is young enough to not understand what is going on, but old enough to pick up on our sadness today. Are you doing anything different to get out of this funk, at least around your kids?
Don’t know if today is really the day to ask a parenting question, but I don’t particularly want to think about the election. My baby likes the car and naps well during drives during the day, but at night he screams the entire time while in the car. Not such a huge issue in the summer time, but now that the time has changed this is a problem. This weekend I tried starting a drive in the light and as soon as the sun went down he started screaming. It is definitely a problem with the dark, that’s the only consistent variable. Has anyone dealt with this before, and does anyone have advice on how to turn this around?
Hugs to all who had to break the news to their kids this morning. That alone made this much worse than 2016 for me.
